ALLIUM SATIVUM REGULATES LIPID METABOLISM IN ALLOXAN INDUCED DIABETIC RATS
Allium sativum (A. sativum), commonly known as garlic, is a species in the onion genus, Allium. The hypolipidemic activity of A. Sativum (Family: Amaryllidaceae) extract have been studied in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. In this model oral administration of extract (500mg/kg bw., p.o.) for 15 days in diabetic-dyslipidemic rats exerted significant lipid lowering effect as assessed by the reversal ...

ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF EUGENOL AGAINST HUMAN PATHOGENIC BACTERIA BY MINIMAL INHIBITORY CONCENTRATION, MINIMAL BACTERICIDAL CONCENTRATION AND DISC-DIFFUSION METHODS
Essential oils from plants have been reported to have antibacterial activity. Essential oil is a mixture of many chemicals, and one or more chemicals in essential oil may have antibacterial activity. In our laboratory, essential oil from the leaves of Ocimum sanctum L. was found to have antibacterial activity against 18 human bacteria. GC-MS analysis of the Ocimum sanctum essential oil revealed th...

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF AZADIRACHTA INDICA LEAF POWDER AND ITS DIFFERENT EXTRACTS ON GLYCEMIC, INSULINEMIC AND LIPIDEMIC STATUS OF TYPE 2 DIABETIC MODEL RATS
The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of oral feeding of A. indica leaf (powder, aqueous and 80% ethanol extract) in STZ induced type 2 diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced by single intraperitoneal injection of STZ to 48hrs old pups and experiments were carried out three months later. For chronic experiment type 2 rats were divided into 5 groups: 1) Water control, 2) Glibencl...

A COMPARISON BETWEEN WELLS’ SCORE AND MODIFIED DOPPLER ULTRASOUND IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF DEEP VENOUS THROMBOSIS OF THE LOWER LIMB
The assessment of the probability of occurrence of deep vein thrombosis played a very important part in making a correct diagnosis and modified Wells’ score is a widely used prediction rule for pre-test probability assessment. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the modified Wells’ score in the diagnosis of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis compared to Doppler ultrasound study. ...

ASSESSMENT OF SURGICAL STRESS RESPONSE AND PREDICTING ITS FUNCTIONAL IMPLICATIONS
Surgery alters the homeostatic balance and defence mechanisms in body eliciting certain responses called as stress response. In addition certain peri-operative factors may also influence the degree of stress response reflecting surgical recovery. The present study is an attempt to assess surgical stress response and to determine the influence of peri-operative factors on it. This study investigate...
